You're right, of course, that most will probably display it sideways.
But it's a true bust, and not just the head, those shoulders would make a side display kind of awkward. And it's still eating up over 3' of horizontal space. No matter which way, it's gonna eat up a lot of real estate.
OTOH- were it looking down at even just a mild 45 degree inclination (which I'm sure people here would still balk at), that would cut down on width space, and possibly make a front facing display more do-able.
I'd also think that attitude would be a little more dynamic and less bland than the basic mugshot profile...even if it still gets displayed in profile anyway.
